I wouldn't call a note that starts with "Hey asshole" courteous but that's just me lol.

I have to agree. While I have put aftermarket exhaust on my Camaro (just axle-backs) because I felt the factory ones didn't do it justice and look like crap, I see no enjoyment in having a car so loud (or smelly ) that it prompts others to leave such a note.

And that's the thing - it never crossed your mind how offensive (to both hearing and smell) that your car is to others. Not to mention illegal. You obviously don't care about others... it's all about you. Not cool.

Our country doesn't allow illegal exhaust systems. In many instances there are noise ordinances and limits. OP's exhaust exceeds the limits that "our country allows", yet he ignores it. If others express their displeasure with that (which, by the way, our country does allow), he shouldn't be surprised by it.

What I love about all the environmental Nazis, or any other Nazi that wants to police the universe, is they think nothing of the annoying crap they do like let their dog crap on my lawn, run over my mailbox and take off, let their cat roam around my yard, etc.

They are so worried about the cow who gave his life for the leather in our shoes, but what about the 8 year old Malaysian kid working in the sweat shop. He needs his $2hr an hour to survive. Should we put him down instead of the cow.

They advocate policies that contradict each other and are often mutually exclusive. Half the population of the Earth would have to disappear for their ideas to work. They should volunteer to be first.

I have two LS powered vehicles with modified exhaust, but the loudest thing I own is the Dodge Diesel and it's stock.

That would be framed and on my garage wall!

I am running no cats and the smell is barely noticable.

Honestly, I only recently realized what smell people are talking about. I came up driving big carbed muscle cars and when people talked about a raw fuel smell, I was expecting something really harsh. The little whiff you get every once in a while is noting compared to blowing the power valve on a Holley.

People who leave notes like that are sad. I've never had that happen but I have had notes left in my mailbox before. I would probably react the same, immediate disgust then a little chuckle with an eye roll. No harm done.

It's like they wanna prove they are as big of an a-hole as you are, except they are all spineless about it.

I sorry op, you can't fix stupid. I would love to catch the idiot leaving a note on my car hehehe, Not bragging at all but I'm constantly at the gym with 5.4 bmi and yes I am ripped. Now of coarse I probably would not have physically done anything to him but yes I would most definitely had given him a good scare lol.

Its so weird on the other hand though because I can almost guaranty you that my cammed catless ss with stainless works retro chambered exhaust (3 inch no mufflers) and full headers is louder than your car. I seem to get nothing but thumbs up and compliments never any negative crap. No offense op but this is why I could never live in california again. After dropping out of college in 05 and moving to Houston Tx, I'm still mad about not doing it so much sooner.

Hope you find the shit who left that and give his prius driving ass a good scare lol.

I'm just glad it wasn't worse like getting your car vandalized. When you realize someone is angry enough to "do something" about it, think about what they COULD have done vs. what they did do.

I personally love loud cars, but the reason I didn't get a full header setup and opted for just an axle back was because I didn't want to draw the negative attention of someone like this who put a note on your windshield. It's painful that I don't have a loud car, but more painful if worse happens to it.

If you can figure out how to read that bar code, I think it gives the ZIP+4.
That should narrow it down pretty good.
